Multiple biological, synthetic and hybrid polymers are used for multiple medical applications.
A wide range of different polymers is available, and they have further the advantage to be …

Microporous membrane separators (MMS) are at the heart of rechargeable lithium/sodium
ion batteries (LIBs/NIBs) because they prevent short circuits and serve as a channel for ion …

Electron beam irradiation technology has gained more attention as it appears to be a
promising economically and environmentally sustainable alternative to traditional wet …

In this work, a combination of bio-inspired poly (dopamine) deposition and epoxy grafting
was proposed, aiming at improving the surface activity and adhesion property of ultrahigh …

Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a polymer that is widely used in
industrial and orthopaedic applications. In this work, pristine multiwalled carbon nanotubes …

Due to the chemical inertness of the polyester (PET) fiber surface, it often needs to be
immersed in a traditional resorcinol-formaldehyde-latex (RFL) dipping solution before it can …

Oxidation is an important effect of irradiation on polyethylene in air. In this work, oxidation of
ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) powder (ca. 110 μm in diameter) …

In this study, a screening of the efficacy of a microbial consortium of bacteria and fungi
isolated from activated sludge, river sediment, and compost for the degradation of …

Electron-beam-induced grafting of hydrophilic polymers was applied to modify PVDF
membranes for biomedical applications. Grafting was performed by immersing the …

In this study, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers reinforced rigid
polyurethane (RPU) composites were prepared with the goal of improving strength and …
